Bringing the original, yet now often forgotten, theoretical contexts for these terms back to the fore, Johan Hartle and Samir Gandesha offer a new look at the importance of Western Marxism from its early days to the present moment-and reveal why Marxist cultural critique must continue to play a vital role in any serious sociological analysis of contemporary society.Country/Region of Manufacture: NLGenre: Law & PoliticsISBN-10: 9089648518Edition: 0Author: Noortje LeijRelease Year: 2017 Missing Information?Please contact us if any details are missing and where possible we will add the information to our listing.
